Identifikasjon

DREVET AV MERLIN

A medium-sized, vibrantly colored robin-chat with tail, underparts, throat, and face all pumpkin orange, emphasizing the beady dark eye. The back and wings are steel-blue, except for the dark central tail feathers. Pairs are secretive in thickets, forest patches, and dense woodland, where they typically forage on the ground. The species is often first detected by its plaintive trembling “creee-craww” contact call and other typical fluty robin-chat vocalizations, including many imitations of other species.
